I don't *research* every entry I make in the "What Are You Listening to?" thread. In fact, I don't research any of them. Why would I? How much time do you think I have, Genteel, to put into SYG posts?

I've made a living doing archival, observational, demographic/social and scientific research, and I'm damn good at it.
Are you sure you don't mean "fact-checking"... Still, pretty asinine, but at least I can imagine a scenario in which what you're saying might be true.

Next time I talk about why I like MBDTF more than The College Dropout, I'll be sure to include APA formatted citations of peer reviewed journal entries that provide supporting evidence for my arguments. Hopefully this will prove that I'm not just, y'know, writing whatever pops into my head (which of course, I am).

Ugh. I can't believe I'm even replying to your bating & bullshit. I know damn well that you just like fucking with me.

Is it ok with everyone if I go ahead and post whatever I want to post? I don't feel like stopping because anyone thinks it's dumb. I'm not even sure what specific posts your bitching about... I don't post fucking *reviews*

Anyway if you don't like, feel free to not read it.

i demand more journalistic clichés and tedious generalizations, por favor.

i've never found much usefulness in posts with only picture covers-- i don't know what the fuck they stand for or what they're trying to say.

so, kindly continue. at least a couple of us will read while others fume.

btw this doesn't mean i agree with everything you say, but talk is more entertaining than record cover copypasta.

More beat shit. This time from Japan. And despite being almost indistinguishable from beat music from anywhere else, it's a decent, satisfying listen.

Preview it on Spotify or the Cold Busted website. If you want to.

It's like going back in time. From the opening chords of the first track, the similarities between this album and Jim's "dumb pop" experiments, Insignificance & Eureka, is uncanny. And like those albums, the poured on sentiment and melancholy of the music might as well be sincere, because even though we all fucking know better, Jim O'Rourke is just too good at this shit, and the songs end up breaking your heart anyway.

Possible album of the year contender.

cheers for the reminder! new Jim O'Rourke's album! nice.

that someone post a picture of a cover of a record tells me absolutely nothing about that record except that a person just posted a picture of its cover on a forum. might be great, might be shit, might not even have been heard.

i.e., useless. like a facebook status update. "wearing checkered socks today."

Rob Instigator · 05.22.2015, 02:52 PM

"it wasn't a glove originally, believe me!"

btw, im wearing no socks.

There's this new thingumybob called The Googles - you can just drag and drop the image into this page and you'll most likely know what the dealie-o is. Yes, it's nice when the post includes a comment about the record, as long as it's AN ORIGINAL THOUGHT (the rarest element in the universe) AND NOT SOME EXCRUCIATINGLY ENDLESS GODDAMN BABBLE WHICH DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE JACK SHIT TO ANYTHING.

Make every sentence matter in order to make a compelling point and then I'll give a flying fuck. Probably.

if one should only speak when uttering original thoughts then everyone needs to shut the fuck up right now and then forever

but that's not practical is it?

so i'd rather have babble from people i know than a ritualistic display of pokemon cards-- just my preference.
